What is the Hybridization of the Carbon atoms in Acetylene sp HybridisationEach carbon is only joining to two other atoms rather than four (as in methane or ethane) or three (as in ethene). Here the carbon atoms hybridise their outer orbitals before forming bonds, this time they only hybridise two of the orbitals. They use the ‘s’ orbital (2s) and one of the 2p orbitals, … [Read more...] about What is the Hybridization of the Carbon atoms in Acetylene
